Poems live within all of us. Simple words that can turn into complex pieces.
she's just another lost soul in this tragic world waiting for somebody to come and change her she's already tired of the things that make her feel small like what's the use of ripping your parts if you're not whole but you're the universe that she'd never get tired of living for you're the only soul that makes her love what she doesn't have anymore so love her like in movies winter, fall, summer, spring love her until it's unfair love her like you're the happiest and love her like you were born for it

Love Her
I have traveled this world for sixteen years I have yet to experience love I may be young, but I am afraid Afraid that I'll be alone for the rest of my days... People say I'm too young and should wait But what if one day life decides it's too late? Too late to love the person meant for me Too late to love in this cruel reality... Will I ever love someone in the years to come? Do I even have that long before my life is done? Life can be fickle and life can wither away I wish love would hurry, I may only have today... I wish life would give me the chance The chance to find love and to feel romance A romance so pure and without the pain of sorrow So that I could find the strength to live for tomorrow... I may seem desperate, but life can be unfair I do not want to leave without knowing love in the air I can only wish our paths will cross some way Hopefully I can live long enough to see that day...

Love and time
My life was black and white A colorless canvas that stood barren Color was never essential It was never a necessity of mine. Yet somehow in my own dull perception A dot had formed right in the center A bright dot to say the least... A peculiar thing I had never seen before It grew slowly, little by little A storm of color emerged with each inch Brown, Yellow, Blue, Purple... So many different colors My canvas was no longer colorless In fact it was the complete opposite. It was not plain and it was not normal It was now a work of art. People gawked at its odd style Praised it for its unusual strokes A bizarre spectacle to most And a quite unexpected transformation for me... "Who painted this strange piece?" Before I knew it people were staring at me. Puzzling eyes that clapped in my direction "Congratulations on your success" Words that made me realize I was the painter I was the one holding the brush The ****** who painted my own path The one who put color into my life "Sign the painting" They all cheered But now that I know I'm the painter My work of art is not finished yet I have unfinished business in my life I cannot quit now. Knowing that I still haven't found the right colors The right mix of red, green or blue to solve my problems I cannot call this a masterpiece... My life is still a canvas But it's not colorless anymore...

Colorless Canvas
In my heart there is a garden The garden I took so much care of I dreamed of having simple, beautiful roses Lovely orchids and colorful tulips As I grew older my dreams started to change The garden desired material things It wanted a lovely fountain in the middle Sprinklers and cute little gnomes on the side But as people started visiting my garden It started to wither as they came and went I was so busy entertaining others My garden started to suffer in the process But once you stepped into my garden it came to life You repaired every little flaw You showed me beautiful flowers But then you left my garden for another... I'm trying my best to show you I'm happy how things are But no matter how many flowers I plant Or fountains I place inside The only thing I long for is you inside it..

We are writers and poets who know how to express We can define our feelings a lot more or a lot less Why were we cursed with the ability to feel? The feelings of life that are so painfully real... We can make music by writing what we desire Turning simple paper into a passionate fire We can sway hearts by symbolizing love and creation Or break another's by turning words into death and temptation We are the cursed race of scholars who turn words into weapons We can draw blood with a phrase in a matter of seconds We are dedicated authors with emotions so heavy That one word from us that is read or heard can be deadly Words are our weapons, our friends and our foes Even a writer or poet has demons that only we know Each line is a battle and each piece is a war We are writers and poets and we will write forevermore

We are writers and poets
I can never be that girl you adore The same girl you would do anything for Someone you've admired long before me And someone that fits your own reality I'm just a boy who wants to have you But dreams like these never come true I can never be more of a woman than her She'll always be the one you'd prefer Fate is so fickle and yet so so sweet I'm glad fate decided you and I would meet But if I had the choice to choose my path I would forget you instead of facing love's wrath She is your dream and your desire And you are something I can only wish to acquire I've accepted you and I cannot be together Because I know in my heart I can never be her

I can never be her
I never wanted to leave The warmth of your arms The smile in your eyes The love in your laughter I never wanted to leave The softness of your touch The smell of your hair The love in your voice I never wanted to leave The pain in your heart The tears on your face The hurt in your soul Because I loved you so much I never wanted to leave.

I never wanted to leave
Remember the first time that you told me hello? It was an awkward moment that I will always know I remember us laughing in that simple, little moment A time when we lived solely for our own enjoyment Remember the first time that you held my hand? A moment filled with confusion that I didn't understand I had felt warmth and a tingling in my heart A memory in my mind that will never depart Remember the first time you held me in your embrace? An action filled with love and done with such grace My own heart started beating like an endless melody A song that never stopped in our own little fantasy Remember the first time that our lips finally met? A beautiful moment I will never forget It was like an explosion of love that I cannot truly explain A metallic wine or the sweetest tasting champagne Remember the first time that you told me goodbye? The only moment we had that I wanted to die You were gonna leave me because you needed to be free I let you go because I knew your lover was something I could never be Do I regret my decision? I regret it every second that passes by Because you will always be my first love And my love for you will never die...

Remember the first time?
Goodbyes never hurt me It's always the memories that follow To live in such a cruel reality A world so insensitive and shallow A goodbye is just a moment But the memories are stuck on replay To think we deserve such torment We remember each and every day A goodbye will not hurt you But the memories will shatter your being Break your heart into pieces Your life may even lose meaning Goodbyes do not hurt you They are only the beginning A life that was once so simple Turned into a life so unforgiving

Goodbyes do not hurt me
A life without love Is like an ocean without fish A garden without flowers A sound without noise A life without love Is a morning without coffee A smile without joy A word without letters A life without love Is a life without you And the life I am living
